Can I get some help guys? My phone got bricked after I stupidly installed Chainfire3D, the phone is in a boot loop state for now.
My phone's firmware version is 6.1.A.2.55 and I have an unlocked bootloader, my CWM was gone after flashing 6.1.A.2.55 before but my phone is unlocked and it's USB Debugging is turned ON before I bricked it.
After 2 days of researching, here's what I've got (and tried):
My phone's vibrator is not functioning so I don't know how many times my phone vibrate when I hold Power + Volume Up.
My phone's USB port is faulty, it charges but it can't be recognized on a computer then I found a guide here on the forum about cleaning the USB port using a toothpick, and I think it's working fine now.
I am using Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit and I found out that there are issues regarding the ADB drivers, I tried some solutions I found online but my phone is still not detected.
I installed a bootable Windows 7 SP1 64-bit on a external HDD and tried to use Flashtool there. I installed the Fastboot, Flash Mode, Xperia Acro S drivers from C:\Flashtool\drivers and still my phone is not detected.
I tried to install Flashtool again from my girlfriend's computer, Windows 7 64-bit, my phone is detected in Flash Mode but can't stay there for long, it will exit Flash Mode then goes to charging, unlike in Fastboot wherein it stays there.
Tried installing Flashtool again from my mom's computer and borrowed her USB cable, it stays in Flash Mode then I tried to flash LT26w_1265-3909_6.1.A.2.55_GENERIC-user_CUST_1266-3278_R4G from there, but it stops with an error Error processing loader.sin, again I did some research about it and then I tried flashing it again, but this time Flashtool didn't gave me an error but it stops at Checking header right after Processing loader.sin
I also tried to flash only the kernel.sin on Fastboot mode but the Flashtool crashed.
Again, from my mom's computer, I installed Sony PC Companion, it was detected as Xperia Acro HD but my mom's computer don't have internet so I wasn't able to try to repair from there.
I also have another question, could it be that my USB port is not functioning? Are there any other methods to make my USB function again aside from bringing it to a service center?

Instead of trying to install rom, try installing cwm, then if cwm is installed and working, you can use that to flash zip through sideload from pc.

Okay sir I will try your suggestion, thanks. Can I install CWM using an SD card?
By the way, I brought my phone at the Sony Service Center here, they told me that they can not repair my phone since their computer couldn't detect it and the phone's problem is the motherboard. My phone has dents on it, so I'm pretty sure that they used it as a reason. And also, they told me that my phone was rooted. I was so frustrated because I know that my phone's problem is the USB since the phone charges and goes into bootloop after installing Chainfire3D.
Hi, I recently tried using a stock image with odin for my galaxy tab pro 8.4. Odin started flashing but failed when sending system.img.
I tried this process twice and got the same result even using a different USB port in may computer and a different cable but, after the second try (and as the first one I disconnected the computer and restarted into download mode), the tablet usb stopped working.
When I connected it in my first two tries, I got the typical windows sound when you connect anything in the usb, now I dont get anything and not even in the device manager. I tried with another computer and got the same problem, no usb connected sound and nothing in device manager.
My device is now stuck in odin mode. If I try to reboot normally I get into download mode but with the message "Firmware upgrade encounterd an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".
I have tried deleteing de drivers and installing kies but still nothing.
Can you help me please?
Nevermind

For anyone facing this, you have to wait for the tablet to run out of battery and then connect it again to the computer. It will be detected as before.
As the title says my phone will not recognize when a usb cable is plugged in. However if I take the battery out and plug in the phone it will boot and begin charging when i replace the battery but as soon as I reboot its right back to not seeing the cable. Ive tried restoring a backup in TWRP from before the issue started and that didnt help. Any Ideas? Also even when I do the battery work around my computer still wont see the device.
Windows will recognize the phone in bootloader mode so I do have access to fastboot commands.
What version of Windows and do you have the LG drivers installed?
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk
Windows 7 and yes i have lg drivers installed. But I dont think that is not the issue here. Its not that the computer wont recognize the phone its that the phone wont recognize a usb cable attachment at all. This has something to do with the phone and apparently its on a really deep level. I have done a full system wipe and even formatted the internal storage then installed the stock 20E update and bootstack and even that didnt help. Ive tried using KDZ to factory restore the phone but for some reason when its in download mode it isnt being read as a LG phone but as a generic ADB device.
Update: so I finally did a full factory restore with the stock recovery and the phone would identify a usb cable plugged in, It was charging with a wall charger and would be read by my computer however as soon as I reboot the phone the problem returns.... so after a wipe all is wel but rebooting breaks the phone again. could something be happening during boot up that would cause the usb port not to register. Im so confused.
I have a Xperia S running cm 12.1 with unlocked bootloaders TWRP installed and i tried to partition my SD card [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2584759] but clearly something went wrong and now the phone wont boot. I made a lot of research and tried everything but all the guides require to be able to boot into flashmode . My phone is dead the only sign of life is a red led when its charging which after some hours of charge will shut off. When the light is off and the phone connected on PC, the PC can recognize the device on unspecified devices (QHSUSB_DLOAD). i have installed all the needed drivers from Sony, google drivers from sdk, and adb drivers(adb wont see the device and i tried everything to do so, but nothing seem to work). I got a market for android on my pc called mobogenie that when i connect the phone it detects that a phone is connected but wont see what phone.The hardware reset buttons work but its useless in the current position. Concluding, the phone is bricked and wont open in fastboot-flashboot-bootloader-TWRP, its recognized as a device but not as "Xperia s" i got all the drivers and i want to flash the original firmware (already downloaded) to fix it. A possible problem is that the partition table is destroyed and after the flash it will hopefully be restored. The problem is not on the hardware but on software. I tried to trigger the download mode with the Samsung way (USB jig, 300k ohm ) but nothing happened as expected. Every solution i found required flash mode which is not accessible at the moment and i tried lots of things to go into fastboot(ever the rubber band trick,remove the battery etc). PLEASE help i dont know what to do, please help me flash it (i already got flashtool, Emma) or anohter solution. Thanks for the help in advance.
#edit
i also took my phone apart to disconnect the morthermboard and reset the chips without letting the battery die, didnt work. Then i let the battery die but still no luck. I also tried from linux after following tutorial to install adb corectly but it wont see my phone.(it can see it in usb devices)
My problem started when I attempted to bypass the FRP by flashing a custom TOT file. I neglected to notice the file was specified for a 32GB version. I flashed it on a 16GB version using LGUpgrade Tool. The phone then froze at the splash page that just says "Google" . I thought I was fortunate enough to be able boot to recovery mode and so I flashed the stock firmware through ADB - the same ROM version that was previously on my phone and from a copy which I had used in the past with no problems. Everything seemed to be working again except my PC doesn't detect the USB connection anymore. I've tried the same procedure but now the command 'adb devices' doesn't list the phone. However, there is a point when I boot to recovery mode the PC makes a sound as if it detects the phone but then moments later it makes the other sound as if it gets disconnected. As I stated earlier, my phone seems to be where I was stuck at FRP with Android version 7.1.2 but my problem now is I can't get the PC to detect the phone when it's plugged into its USB connection. Nothing shows in Windows Explorer as well as Device Manager? I tried re-installing the drivers. Stopping and restarting the ADB server... still no detection. Is there a way to set USB mode to MTC while in FRP mode? Should it matter in Recovery Mode?
I'm going to wait for a response before I attempt to flash again but this time through the SD card because this will be a first time for me using that method and I hope there's a less risky solution.
